Description
Summary:The conductive ink research area has attracted much interest from researchers. The possibility of fabricating flexible and simple electronic devices offers many advantages for electronic devices, such as energy storage, wearable devices, and smart devices. Graphene conductive ink has gained much attention from scientists owing to its excellent electrical, optical, and mechanical properties. Numerous scientists have reported the modification of graphene properties to meet the demand for the application. Among the presented graphene synthesis methods, the electrochemical exfoliation process is simple, low-cost, and environmentally friendly. Moreover, the electrochemical exfoliation approach can be conducted in a water solution, thus decreasing production costs and making it environmentally safe. This review article presents the progress in the electrochemical exfoliation of graphene to produce graphene-conductive ink. Progress on graphene conductive ink and its hybrid is also presented. In particular, the potential application of graphene in energy storage, sensors, and other possible applications is summarized in the last part. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.
